Spring is in swing and you will follow Judie Lincer, Native Garden Committee Co-Chair and Garden Tour Director 2018-2020, through her California native plant garden to learn how she created it and what she found along the way. Greg Rubin, President and Founder of California’s Own Native Landscape Design, Inc. and Author, will interview.

Judie's garden has a natural look, is chock full of natives, and is a wildlife paradise. The garden is vibrant with wild flowers and her backyard has a pool that has been converted into a pond and provides a source of water for birds and other wildlife. There is abundant garden art and sustainability features such as 3000 gallons of water collection and a path made of recycled wine bottles. Bird and butterfly visitors abound.
